“…These findings are in contrast with those of the previous reports, indicating no association between this variant and the development of OHSS (Kerkela et al, ; Santos‐Ribeiro et al, ). However, Lindgren et al () have recently stated that women carrying A/A in LHCGR rs2293275 need lower doses of exogenous FSH for an adequate response. Taking into account our findings on the higher prevalence of the G/G genotype in OHSS patients, the data may attenuate the hypothesis asserting that A‐allele in LHCGR rs2293275 may enhance the sensitivity of the receptor to the hormone (Lindgren et al, ; Piersma et al, ).…”

“…CYP17 polymorphisms also have been associated with the need for menopausal hormone replacement, with varying frequencies amongst racial groups, further suggesting differential propensities for steroid pathway functionality based on the frequencies of these polymorphisms (Feigelson, 1999). Polymorphisms of the FSH and LH receptors have been shown to predict assisted reproduction technique outcomes and determine the amount of gonadotrophin needed for assisted reproduction technique stimulation (Lazaros, 2013; Lasik-Podar 2015; Lindgren 2016). Polymorphisms in aromatase have been associated with differences in oestradiol and follicle response to ovarian stimulation (Lazaros, 2013).…”

“…Even those patients who were homozygous for the G/G variant revealed a higher number of mature oocytes than the patients homozygous for the A/A variant [10]. Regarding the effect of the c.2039 A>G polymorphism on pregnancy, the conclusions of published studies [7,13,24] are highly conflicting. Indeed, in one study [7], the G/G variant was associated with a lower clinical pregnancy rate, whereas in the paper by Klinkert et al [13], the A/A variant correlated to lower implantation and pregnancy rates than the G/G variant.…”

“…Indeed, in one study [7], the G/G variant was associated with a lower clinical pregnancy rate, whereas in the paper by Klinkert et al [13], the A/A variant correlated to lower implantation and pregnancy rates than the G/G variant. In the most recent study [24], the c.2039 A > G polymorphism was beneficial for pregnancy outcome only if combined with the luteinizing hormone/human chorionic gonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) variant Asn312Ser. Moreover, a recent meta-analysis failed to demonstrate a correlation between the G/G variant and the clinical pregnancy rate [25].…”
